Mating The Clutch With The Gearbox
Boy, I thought I had done my homework and that mating the transmission
with the clutch would be a piece of cake. My friend Big Jim spun up a clutch
tool out of wood and it was a nice tight fit. I checked all the bits on the
bench, the pilot bearing fit the shaft and the flywheel, the recorked clutch
disk fit the splines of the input shaft and the throwout bearing fit both the
shaft and the pressure plate.
With the exception of the pilot bearing which was new and the clutch disk
which was replaced, all of these parts lived together in harmony with the old
engine. Anybody got any bright ideas? I'm going back outside to try to shame
it into place.
